What’s your favorite status message?
November 14, 2008 on 10:05 am | In Fun Stuff | 99 Comments
If you use Yahoo! Messenger, you already know that your status message is about more than whether or not you’re available. You can use it to update friends about where you are, what you’re doing, what you’re thinking… You can even use it to share your favorite web links.
Do you have favorite status messages that you’ve used on Yahoo! Messenger? If so, leave it in a comment here on the blog and we may include it an upcoming project we’re working on (sorry, can’t divulge all the details just yet!). It can be a status message you’ve used or that you saw on a friend’s status, or one that you just make up right now.
Check out the image with this post. One of our team members came up with a few to help get your creative juices flowing.
Got a good one? Tell us your favorite status message by leaving it in a comment.

Well, there are more… You choose:
“Got bored. Anyone to warm me up?”
“Sad, need your affection.
“Got devils in my brain, don’t touch!”
(when it’s late evening) “Hm good morning anyone… I’ve just woken up from my long princess sleep.”

1. Give a man a match, and he’ll be warm for a minute, but set him on fire, and he’ll be warm for the rest of his life.
2. The real trouble with reality is that there’s no background music.
3. Going to church doesn’t make you a Christian any more than standing in a garage makes you a car.
4. Everyone is entitled to be stupid, but some abuse the privilege.
5. War doesn’t determine who’s right. War determines who’s left.
6. If pro is opposite of con, then what is the opposite of progress?
7. Sarcasm helps keep you from telling people what you really think of them.
8. If you think things can’t get worse it’s probably only because you lack sufficient imagination.
9. You can’t be late until you show up.
10. Knowledge is realizing that the street is one-way, wisdom is looking both directions anyway.
11. Parents spend the first part of our lives teaching us to walk and talk, and the rest of it telling us to sit down and shut up.
12. Expecting the world to treat you fairly because you are good is like expecting the bull not to charge because you are a vegetarian.
13. The secret to creativity is knowing how to hide your sources.
14. Books have knowledge, knowledge is power, power corrupts, corruption is a crime, and crime doesn’t pay..so if you keep reading, you’ll go broke.
15. Advice for the day: If you have a headache, do what it says on the aspirin bottle: Take two, and KEEP AWAY FROM CHILDREN
